It was finally recital day - these little 3 and 4 year olds were adorable! I found out part of being a backstage mom was having lots of activities to keep your girlies busy so I had snacks, coloring books, crayons, stickers, and the ipad loaded with movies - we also had hair spray, makeup, etc to refresh them as they had 3 songs they were doing - so adorable!
Waiting back stage and tad bit nervous!
4th of July with Mimi in town!
We started working on our backyard this year as it was completely non-existent when we moved in. So, we put up a fence, poured a patio, did some landscaping and later on in the year... put in grass... now it is gorgeous. So the below pic is a progress pic... we also love our hammocks!
We also got the kiddos a little pool!
Took Mimi on some rides at the amusement park on the boardwalk!
Love Summer Beach Reading!
The beach is always great for meeting new friends too!
We took Mimi to Hammonton which is supposedly the blueberry capital of the world and went blueberry picking!
Mimi watched the kiddos for us a couple of nights so we could have date nights!
We also got in a some date nights with friends - this is one of my favorite restaurants in our area called Baia - beautiful setting and the food is amazing!
As soon as Mimi left then my parents came in town - we made grilled pizzas!
Baby Bump is starting to show! (13 weeks)
My dad preached at a church not far from us - the pastor of that church and my dad are in the same college program so after church we went to an amazing Italian restaurant.

Took my family to Atlantic City to explore the boardwalk and some of the casinos there!
Kids on scooters!
We also took my parents to historic Smithville and they have a Christmas shop!
Christmas in July!
Beach time with the family!
It was also my mom's birthday so we had a party for her!
Then my friend from Phoenix and her girls moved to North Carolina and they were driving through the area so the stayed with us - it was so fun! We did the boardwalk, pizza and rides at the amusement park!
Daniel is starting to go on super scary rides now - like rides I would never, ever go on!
Katelyn had a pool birthday party to go to!
All these little girls are good friends from school - they were obsessed with Raquel's new baby sister!
Some pics from the summer lazy days!
